Han Hye Jin is has returned to Korea after spending three months with soccer star husband Ki Sung Yeung. A rep for the actress confirms to IdolWow! that the actress has returned to take the lead role in a new SBS drama.

The 31-year-old screen star returned to Korea earlier this week after spending an extended three-month "honeymoon" period in Sunderland, England, with her soccer star husband Ki Sung Yeung.

Upon her return she joined as the lead actress of SBS’ upcoming series One Warm Word (working title), where she'll play Na Eun Jin, a successful woman who is unhappy with her husband and struggles with various external events in her life.

Filming for the Ha Myung Hee-written series -- which also stars Kim Ji Soo and Ji Jin Hee -- starts later this month.

The screen siren rose to fame in 2005 when she starred as a young widowed hairdresser in hit drama Be Strong, Geum-soon!. She married her English Premier League player husband -- seven years her junior -- at a luxe Seoul ceremony on July 1 this year.

The couple have yet to take an official honeymoon together, but a source says "it's in the works."
